Definitions

  • the present disclosure generally relates to picture/video encoding and decoding.
  • a picture contains one or several arrays of samples (pixel values) in a specific picture/video format which specifies all information relative to the pixel values of a picture (or a video) and all information which may be used by a display and/or any other device to visualize and/or decode a picture (or video) for example.
  • a picture comprises at least one component, in the shape of a first array of samples, usually a luma (or luminance) component, and, possibly, at least one other component, in the shape of at least one other array of samples, usually a color component.
  • the same information may also be represented by a set of arrays of color samples, such as the traditional tri-chromatic RGB representation.
  • a pixel value is represented by a vector of C values, where C is the number of components.
  • Each value of a vector is represented with a number of bits which defines a maximal dynamic range of the pixel values.
  • Standard-Dynamic-Range pictures are color pictures whose luminance values are represented with a limited dynamic usually measured in power of two or f-stops.
  • SDR pictures have a dynamic range, also called a dynamic in the following, around 10 f-stops, i.e. a ratio 1000 between the brightest pixels and the darkest pixels in the linear domain, and are coded with a limited number of bits (most often 8 or 10 in HDTV (High Definition Television systems) and UHDTV (Ultra-High Definition Television systems) in a non-linear domain, for instance by using the ITU-R BT.709 OETF (Optico-Electrical-Transfer-Function) ⁇ Rec.
  • ITU-R BT.709 OETF Optico-Electrical-Transfer-Function
  • ITU-R BT 709-5, April 2002 or ITU-R BT.2020 OETF (Rec. ITU-R BT.2020-1, June 2014) to reduce the dynamic.
  • This limited non-linear representation does not allow correct rendering of small signal variations, in particular in dark and bright luminance ranges.
  • High-Dynamic-Range pictures the signal dynamic is much higher (up to 20 f-stops, a ratio one million between the brightest pixels and the darkest pixels) and a new non-linear representation is needed in order to maintain a high accuracy of the signal over its entire range.
  • raw data are usually represented in floating-point format (either 32-bit or 16-bit for each component, namely float or half-float), the most popular format being openEXR half-float format (16-bit per RGB component, i.e. 48 bits per pixel) or in integers with a long representation, typically at least 16 bits.
  • floating-point format either 32-bit or 16-bit for each component, namely float or half-float
  • openEXR half-float format (16-bit per RGB component, i.e. 48 bits per pixel
  • integers with a long representation typically at least 16 bits.
  • a color gamut is a certain complete set of colors. The most common usage refers to a set of colors which can be accurately represented in a given circumstance, such as within a given color space or by a certain output device.
  • a color gamut is sometimes defined by RGB primaries provided in the CIE1931 color space chromaticity diagram and a white point as illustrated in Fig. 1.
  • a gamut is defined in this diagram by the triangle whose vertices are the set of (x,y) coordinates of the three primaries RGB.
  • the white point W is another given (x,y) point belonging to the triangle, usually close to the triangle center.
  • a color volume is defined by a color space and a dynamic range of the values represented in said color space.
  • a color gamut is defined by a RGB ITU-R Recommendation BT.2020 color space for UHDTV.
  • An older standard, ITU-R Recommendation BT.709 defines a smaller color gamut for HDTV.
  • the dynamic range is defined officially up to 100 nits (candela per square meter) for the color volume in which data are coded, although some display technologies may show brighter pixels.
  • a change of gamut i.e. a transform that maps the three primaries and the white point from a gamut to another, can be performed by using a 3x3 matrix in the linear RGB color space.
  • a change of space from XYZ to RGB is performed by a 3x3 matrix.
  • a change of gamut can be performed by a 3x3 matrix.
  • a gamut change from BT.2020 linear RGB to BT.709 XYZ can be performed by a 3x3 matrix.
  • High Dynamic Range pictures are color pictures whose luminance values are represented with a HDR dynamic that is higher than the dynamic of a SDR picture.
  • the HDR dynamic is not yet defined by a standard but one may expect a dynamic range up to a few thousands nits.
  • a HDR color volume is defined by a RGB BT.2020 color space and the values represented in said RGB color space belong to a dynamic range from 0 to 4000 nits.
  • Another example of HDR color volume is defined by a RGB BT.2020 color space and the values represented in said RGB color space belong to a dynamic range from 0 to 1000 nits.
  • Color-grading a picture is a process of altering/enhancing the colors of the picture (or the video).
  • color-grading a picture involves a change of the color volume (color space and/or dynamic range) or a change of the color gamut relative to this picture.
  • two different color- graded versions of a same picture are versions of this picture whose values are represented in different color volumes (or color gamut) or versions of the picture whose at least one of their colors has been altered/enhanced according to different color grades. This may involve user interactions.
  • RGB color values composed of 3 components (Red, Green and Blue).
  • the RGB color values depend on the trichromatic characteristics (color primaries) of the sensor.
  • a HDR color-graded version of the captured picture (or video) is then obtained in order to get theatrical renders (using a specific theatrical grade).
  • the values of the first color-graded version of the captured picture (or video) are represented according to a standardized YUV format such as BT.2020 which defines parameter values for UHDTV.
  • the YUV format is typically performed by applying a non-linear function, so called Optical Electronic Transfer Function (OETF) on the linear RGB components to obtain non-linear components R'G'B', and then applying a color transform (usually a 3x3 matrix) on the obtained non-linear R'G'B' components to obtain the three components YUV.
  • OETF Optical Electronic Transfer Function
  • the first component Y is a luminance component and the two components U,V are chrominance components.
  • a Colorist usually in conjunction with a Director of Photography, performs a control on the color values of the first color-graded version of the captured picture (or video) by fine-tuning/tweaking some color values in order to instill an artistic intent.
  • a SDR color-graded version of the captured picture is also obtained to get home release renders (using specific home, Blu-Ray Disk/DVD grade).
  • the values of the second color-graded version of the captured picture are represented according to a standardized YUV format such as ITU-R Recommendation BT.601 (Rec. 601 ) which defines studio encoding parameters of Standard Digital Television for standard 4:3 and wide-screen 16:9 aspect ratios, or ITU-R Recommendation BT.709 which defines parameter values for High Definition Television systems (HDTV).
  • Obtaining such a SDR color-graded version of the captured picture usually comprises shrinking the color volume of the first color-graded version of the captured picture (for example RGB BT.2020 1000 nits modified by the Colorist) in order that the second color-graded version of the captured picture belong to a second color volume (RGB BT.709 1000 nits for example).
  • This is an automatic step which uses a color mapping function (CMF) (for example for mapping of RGB BT.2020 format to RGB BT.709) usually approximated by a three dimensional look-up-table (also called 3D LUT).
  • CMF color mapping function
  • RGB BT.2020 format for example for mapping of RGB BT.2020 format to RGB BT.709
  • 3D LUT three dimensional look-up-table
  • a Colorist usually in conjunction with a Director of Photography, performs a control on the color values of the second color-graded version of the captured picture by fine-tuning/tweaking some color values in order to instill the artistic intent in the home release.
  • the problem to be solved is the distribution of both the HDR color- graded version and the SDR color-graded version of the captured picture (or video), i.e. the distribution of a compressed HDR picture (or video) representative of a color-graded version of a captured picture (or video) while, at the same time, distributing an associated SDR picture (or video) representative of a color-graded SDR version of said captured picture (or video) for backward compatibility with legacy SDR displays for example.
  • Said associated SDR picture (or video) is sometimes called an imposed SDR picture (video).
  • a straightforward solution is simulcasting both these HDR and SDR color graded pictures (or videos) on a distribution infrastructure.
  • the drawback of this solution is to virtually double the needed bandwidth compared to a legacy infrastructure adapted to broadcast a SDR picture (or video) such as HEVC main 10 profile ("High Efficiency Video Coding", SERIES H: AUDIOVISUAL AND MULTIMEDIA SYSTEMS, Recommendation ITU-T H.265, Telecommunication Standardization Sector of ITU, October 2014).
  • Using a legacy distribution infrastructure is a requirement to accelerate the emergence of the distribution of HDR pictures (or video). Also, the bitrate shall be minimized while ensuring good quality of both the HDR and SDR pictures (or videos).
  • the present principles set out to remedy at least one of the drawbacks of the prior art with a method of encoding both a HDR picture and a first SDR picture obtained from said HDR picture, in at least one bitstream, the method comprising:
